Nov 1 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Denise Borino-Quinn, the forty-six year old actress who played the part of Ginny Sacrimoni, Johnny Sac’s “Rubanesque” wife on ‘The Sopranos’, has died young after a battle with cancer of the liver. The report from CNN said that the actress’s husband had died just a few months before.
